I don't think my party would back that. Let's just buy Sicily.

However, I think I'll buy the rights to the land around my Castle and annex it to Mulenhaim province.

Would never happen, RE: the former. It would cost too much, and the Italians wouldn't let you make an offer anyway.

I just don't see the need to ambulances to be tied with the fire service. In Britain, when a person calls for help, if needed, the fire engines and ambulances rush along but if it is not needed, only one of the two go unlike the American system where everyone goes to the emergency.
